offset is whether how far your wheel will stick out or in...the higher the number the more it will tuck...the lower the number the more it will stick out........on a civic you want to be around 35mm or as high as 45mm depending on what year the vehicle is

You will be fine with that offset. From personal experience, I wouldn't go lower than ET38, tho.

16x7 42 offset on my 00 GSR, and with a 205/45-16 no issues with rubbing, though the rear tires were damn close to rubbing on the outside in the rear when I was tucking tire. The higher 45 offset will be fine, as long as you don't try fitting crazy wide tires, or overly reduce the camber from lowering (push the top of the tire out). 205/40-17 for the Integra and some Civics, and you'd ideally want a smaller diameter for those Civics that came with smaller tires, but I can't find anyone who makes a 17" tire in the correct diameter.
